Save Your Marriage By Adding A Touch Of Romance
Saving your marriage once it hits trouble can involve some deep root exploration that can be ongoing and emotionally draining. However, before it gets to the point of no return you should start today to do what I call the, delicate and enjoyable work of injecting some well earned romance back into your marriage.
Let me ask, when was the last time you put on a surprise for your spouse? A lovely night or weekend in a country hotel? Cooked a meal and made sure that the kids were taken care of at family or friends for the night? A movie in the afternoon followed by walk in the park? If the answer to any of those questions is “not since we first started dating!” then you need to make ammends.
Doing something unexpected for your spouse tells them that you hold their happiness highly. That you are prepared to go out of your way to make sure that they know you love and that they know you’re there for them.
Letting the day to day stresses of life knock you around at the expense of your relationship is a price too high to pay. It’s easy to find that all you’re doing is ferrying the kids from one activity to another, or going from work to bed and bed to work and spending weekends catching up on household chores.
Under those circumstances it’s very easy to find that you and your spouse are simply co-existing in the same house with virtually no communication and pretty soon you begin to grow apart. Your love life dries up, you don’t have the time to sit down and share a meal together and any problems that WILL arise, you end up trying desperatly to deal with on your own because your once best friend has become a stranger to you.
In order for your relationship/marriage to flourish you MUST make time for it! If you don’t then the marriage will rightly think it’s not important and it will shrivell up and die in the corner right where you left it.
Fix Up Now!
- Surprise your spouse by sprousing up! Get out of the sweats and put on a lovely dress and get your hair done, or get a shave and put on pair of pants and a smart shirt.
- Book a meal at a restaurant!
- Contact family and friends to take the kids for a weekend – even if you and your spouse can’t afford to go away, have some time on your own at home without the kids.
- Send your partner their favorite luxury item via courier!
- Send your spouse an invitation to dinner at your home, requesting formal dress and either you cook the meal yourself and wait on your spouse, or you order in a fancy take-away from a smart restaurant with waiter service.
- Get a hot bubble bath set, some candles and a chilled bottle of Champagne!
So you get the picture! Whatever it is that is yours and your spouse’s passion, make it happen and make it happen today. It is possible to save your marriage, IF you give the relationship some special time!
